Show abstract
Lipids exert dynamic biological functions which are determined both by their fatty acyl compositions and precise spatiotemporal distributions inside the cell. There are more than 1000 lipid species in a typical mammalian cell. However, it remains a daunting task to investigate any of these features in live cells for each of the more than 1000 lipid species. Here we resolved this issue by developing a de novo lipid labeling method for major lipid species, including glycerolipids, glycerophospholipids, and cholesterol esters by using a single fluorescent probe. The method not only allowed us to probe the precise subcellular distribution and trafficking of individual lipid species in live cells, but also uncovered some unexpected biological functions of previously reported lipid metabolic enzymes that were not possible by conventional biochemical methods. We envision that this method will become an indispensable tool for the functional analysis of individual lipid species and numerous lipid metabolic enzymes and transporters in live cells.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
